Summary: The complainant requested information related to the number of prosecutions that came about as a result of a particular safety camera. The Police withheld this information under sections 31 and 38. After consideration of whether these exemptions were applied correctly, including consideration of the public interest, the Commissioner has upheld the decision of the public authority to withhold this information. However, the Commissioner does find that section 17 was breached when the public authority failed to issue an adequate refusal notice.
